After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics handled the Celtics 117-105. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
